An hour later, after the babies woke again and she rocked them back to sleep, she went into the kitchen to get some water. Hyun Ki was doing the same. She lowered her eyes as he turned to face her.

“They’re still waking a lot, aren’t they?”

She could smell alcohol on his breath. “Yes.” She dared to lie. “I think it’s getting better.”

He stepped aside so she could use the faucet. She started filling her glass.

“Sometimes I myself have trouble sleeping,” he said. Then his right hand was on her forearm. She froze as his fingers lightly stroked her skin. He was standing just behind her, closer than he’d ever been.

She didn’t know where Sang Hee was. She remembered Leo’s words: They can do anything they want to you.

She dropped the glass. It was full and heavy, and it landed with a loud clang but didn’t break. She hadn’t meant to do that, but it worked; he backed off. Water had splashed on her shirt and maybe gotten him as well. She apologized for the mess, but he was already walking away.
